Program Overview
Hospitality Services is a broad term used to
describe a range of careers available in the
hospitality industry. Do you want to work in
a fast-paced organization that needs happy,
smiling people? Do you like to work with your
hands? Do you want to be part of the “frontof-the-house”, dealing with customers, or are
you more comfortable working in the “back-of
the-house”? You will enjoy the variety offered
in the curriculum, and the hands-on experience
gained, which could potentially lead to jobs
such as room attendant, front desk clerk, food
service, cook or a job in the maintenance
department of a hotel. You will also spend two
days a week in a placement at a restaurant or
hotel that will give you the practical experience
to complement the theory learned in class.
You also have the opportunity to take two
certification exams in Sanitation and Beverage
Services, thus graduating with the confidence
and required skills to work in this industry.

Program Overview
This program prepares you to work in the
automotive industry with an emphasis on motor
vehicle technology. Theory and practical training
equip you for challenging positions in a variety
of careers.
The first semester is common to both the
administration and technical streams, which
allows you time to choose which is right
for you. Moving into second semester, the
administration stream covers accounting,
marketing and statistics, as they relate to the
automotive industry. The technical stream
focuses on applied mechanics, vehicle dynamics
and properties of materials, providing a good
understanding of component design.
As part of the curriculum, you will train on
automobile assemblies in fully-equipped
automotive shops. Both streams provide the
same vehicle technology, and in-school content
as the Automotive Service Technician (AST)
apprenticeship qualification, and prepare
students to enter the industry as well as be
successful on exemption testing for licensing
qualification.
